Napier Port (NZX.NPH), the premier freight gateway for the central and lower North Island of New
Zealand, today reports financial results for the first half of the 2022 financial year that reflect the
challenges of significant supply chain and Covid-related disruptions.
The trading environment and prices for key primary industry cargoes that cross our wharves has
continued to be positive. At the same time, we have made exceptional progress putting in place the
infrastructure that will underpin the prosperity of the region and Napier Port for the long term.
These successes and the favourable trading environment have, however, been overshadowed by
ongoing seasonal labour shortages and by an escalation in global shipping disruptions that have
created challenges for all parts of the supply chain – customers, ports, shippers, carriers, and agents.
As a direct result we saw a 16.6% reduction in container volumes for the half-year period to 113,000
TEU
3
from 135,000 TEU in the same period a year ago, with container ship visits falling to 102 from
133. We also saw an 8.7% reduction in bulk cargo volumes to 1.7 million tonnes from 1.9 million tonnes
and a reduction in charter vessel visits to 155 from 167 in the same period a year ago.

These reductions and environmental challenges have flowed through to Napier Port’s financial
performance.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenue for the half year was down 3.6% to $50.7 million from $52.6 million in the same period last
year. Our result from operating activities for the half year to 31 March 2022 was down 22.8% to $16.4
million from the $21.3 million reported for the first half of the last financial year. In addition to the
reduction in revenues, the fall reflects an increase in operating expenses as we feel the impact of higher
input costs across all spend categories.
Underlying net profit after tax was $7.2 million, down 32.1% on the $10.6 million in the same period last
year. Reported net profit after tax was down 15% to $9.0 million from $10.6 million in the same period
a year ago.
Napier Port Chief Executive Todd Dawson said: “Shipping schedule reliability has continued to be
unpredictable, resulting in missed or delayed vessel arrivals at Napier Port as well as at other ports
throughout New Zealand and internationally.
“Ships arriving have required larger container exchanges for both us and cargo owners to manage.
These factors have been compounded by pandemic-related absences across cargo owners’ workforces
and adverse local seasonal weather conditions. This created challenges for primary sector production
and further disrupted the flow of cargo.
“While we do not expect any immediate easing in the global supply chain challenges, we are confident
that – as Covid-19 becomes endemic and the shipping industry gradually adapts to the current trading
environment – these pressures will lessen. Our focus therefore is working to keep the supply chain
open and cargo flowing to minimise these disruptions.
“In line with our strategic goals to maintain strong links with our customers and build collaborative
partnerships, we have worked hard to communicate with all in the supply chain and make changes to
accommodate their needs to ensure cargo and shipping services are maintained and delivered as
seamlessly as possible.
“The challenging trading conditions have meanwhile continued to place significant demands on our
people. We are grateful and impressed by the way they have worked to maintain and enhance the links
that Napier Port maintains between the wider regional economy and international markets.
“A key success has been the vigilance they have displayed with regards to Covid prevention and
containment, slowing its spread across our workforce. Covid-related absence, at any one time, did not
exceed 11% between January and March 2022, which meant no operations were stopped as a result
of Omicron.”
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
Mr Dawson said Napier Port has continued to look through the current disruption and focus on ensuring
our region maintains direct, efficient and competitive links to world markets.
“The most notable achievement has been the significant progress we have made bringing the
intergenerational investment in 6 Wharf to near completion. The project, now in the commissioning
phase, continues to deliver ahead of schedule and at a lower cost than initial estimates. It is set to
officially open in July 2022.
“The new wharf opens up growth opportunities and shipping options for cargo owners across the central
and lower North Island. It will allow us to accommodate the larger vessels arriving in New Zealand and
provide greater flexibility and availability across all our wharves.
“We expect the additional capacity 6 Wharf will deliver to begin to be evident in the new financial year.
We also believe this new capability will enhance the attractiveness of Napier Port to shipping lines and
that it will help to encourage others to follow ZIM Integrated Shipping Services, which has launched a
new trans-Tasman service that calls at Napier Port.
“In addition, we have continued to build our landside logistics and services. This is a ‘site to sea’ supply
chain solution that provides central and lower North Island customers with a range of freight and cargo-
handling options via Napier Port. Use of the service is steadily climbing with road and rail running seven
days a week between Manawatū Inland Port and Napier Port.
“Our log-debarking facility is now operational and we are working on processing increased volumes
through the plant. A key benefit of the facility is that it has enabled us to cease methyl bromide
fumigation of logs at Napier Port, a significant environmental win for our region.
“Finally, we welcome the return of cruise ship visits to Napier in the coming cruise season. It remains
too early to say how the current pipeline of bookings will translate into cruise ship visits. We are
confident however, that Napier Port and Hawke’s Bay remain an attractive destination for the cruise
industry and demand is robust, especially with 6 Wharf going live before the season and able to
accommodate the largest cruise vessels that call New Zealand.
BALANCE SHEET AND DIVIDEND
Napier Port remains well funded. We spent $43.7 million on capital projects in the half year, including
$36.9 million on the 6 Wharf project, and ended the half year with drawn bank debt of $120 million. In
addition, we have undrawn bank facilities of $60 million.
The Board has resolved to pay a fully imputed interim dividend of 2.8 cents per share, unchanged from
the interim dividend paid last year.
The record date for dividend entitlement will be 10 June and the payment date will be 23 June.
OUTLOOK
Mr Dawson said: “The trade outlook for our region remains positive, with primary sector commodity
prices remaining high and a stronger second half anticipated for meat, forestry and horticulture exports.
“Even though there are signs the pandemic is abating, Napier Port still faces uncertainty in the supply
chain, including shipping disruption, labour shortages and high-cost inflation.
“Noting these continuing uncertainties and assuming a continuation of the current market conditions,
Napier Port reaffirms the earnings guidance provided in April for the underlying result from operating
activities for the year to 30 September 2022 to range between $38 million and $42 million.
“As highlighted previously, once 6 Wharf completes during the second half of the financial year, the
majority of our finance costs will be recorded in our income statement. This, together with the additional
depreciation for the new assets, will be deducted in determining net profit for the year.”
Napier Port will provide a further update to the NZX market regarding our June quarter trading results
during August.
Further detail on Napier Port’s financial performance for the half year to 31 March 2022 is included in
the half year report and investor presentation released to the NZX today and available on the company’s

CHAIR & CHIEF
EXECUTIVE’S REPORT
TĒNĀ KOUTOU
Napier Port’s results for the first half of the 2022 financial
year reflect the challenges of significant supply chain
and Covid-related disruptions.
The trade environment of key cargoes and prices remains
positive for the primary industry trades that cross our
wharves. At the same time, we have made exceptional
progress putting in place the infrastructure that will
underpin the prosperity of the region and Napier Port
for the long term.
These successes and favourable trading conditions have,
however, been overshadowed by ongoing seasonal labour
shortages and by an escalation in global shipping disruptions
that have created challenges for all parts of the supply chain
– customers, ports, shippers, carriers and agents.
Shipping schedules have continued to be unpredictable,
resulting in missed or delayed vessel arrivals at Napier
Port as well as at other ports throughout New Zealand
and internationally. Meanwhile, ships arriving have
required larger container exchanges for both us and
cargo owners to manage. These factors have been
compounded by pandemic-related absences across cargo
owners’ workforces and adverse local seasonal weather
conditions. This created challenges for primary sector
production and further disrupted the flow of cargo.
As a direct result we saw a 16.6% reduction in container
volumes for the half-year period to 113,000 twenty-foot
equivalent container units (TEU) from 135,000 TEU in the
same period a year ago, with container ship visits falling
to 102 from 133. We also saw an 8.7% reduction in bulk
cargo volumes to 1.7 million tonnes from 1.9 million tonnes
and a reduction in charter vessel visits to 155 from
167 in the same period a year ago.
Consequently, these reductions and environmental
challenges have flowed through to our financial
performance.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenue for the half year was down 3.6% to $50.7 million
from $52.6 million in the same period last year, with
the fall reflecting lower trade volumes and the reduction
in vessel calls.
Our result from operating activities for the half year to
31 March 2022 was down 22.8% to $16.4 million from
the $21.3 million reported for the first half of the last
financial year. In addition to the reduction in revenues, the
fall reflects an increase in operating expenses as we feel
the impacts of higher input costs across all categories.
Underlying net profit after tax (after adjusting for certain
non-recurring and unrealised fair value revaluation items)
was $7.2 million down 32.1% on the $10.6 million in the
same period last year. Reported net profit after tax was
down 15% to $9 million from $10.6 million in the same
period a year ago.
While we do not expect any immediate easing in the
global supply chain challenges, we are confident that –
as Covid-19 becomes endemic and the shipping industry
gradually adapts to the current trading environment –
these pressures will lessen. Our focus therefore is working
to keep the supply chain open and cargo flowing
to minimise these disruptions.
In line with our strategic goals to maintain strong links
with our customers and build collaborative partnerships,
we have worked hard to communicate with all in the
supply chain and make changes to accommodate
their needs to ensure cargo and shipping services are
maintained and delivered as seamlessly as possible.
OUR PEOPLE
The challenging operating conditions have continued to
place significant demands on our people. We are grateful
and impressed by the way they have worked to maintain
and enhance the links between Napier Port and the wider
regional economy and international markets.
A key success has been the vigilance they have displayed
with regards to Covid prevention and containment,
slowing its spread across our workforce. Covid-related
absence did not exceed 11% at any one time between
January and March, which meant no operations were
stopped during the wave of Omicron. This is a testament
to our team’s determination and can-do attitude that
is at the heart of Napier Port’s culture.
On behalf of shareholders and our region, we thank
Napier Port’s people for their efforts.
LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
We continue to look through the current disruption and
focus on ensuring our region maintains direct, efficient
and competitive links to world markets.
The most notable achievement has been the significant
progress we have made bringing the intergenerational
investment in 6 Wharf to near completion. The project,
now in the commissioning phase, continues to deliver
ahead of schedule and at a lower cost than initial estimates.
It is set to officially open in July.
4 / NAPIER PORT – TE HERENGA WAKA O AHURIRI
The new wharf opens up growth opportunities and
shipping options for cargo owners across the central and
lower North Island. It will allow us to accommodate the
larger vessels arriving in New Zealand and provide greater
flexibility and availability across all our wharves.
We expect the additional capacity 6 Wharf will deliver
to begin to be evident in the new financial year. We also
believe this new capability will enhance the attractiveness
of Napier Port to shipping lines and that it will help to
encourage others to follow ZIM Integrated Shipping
Services, which has launched a new trans-Tasman service
that calls at Napier Port.
In addition, we have continued to build our landside
logistics and services. This is a ‘site to sea’ supply chain
solution that provides central and lower North Island
customers with a range of freight and cargo-handling
options via Napier Port. Use of the service is steadily
climbing with road and rail running seven days a week
between Manawatū Inland Port and Napier Port.
Our log-debarking facility is now operational and we are
working on processing increased volumes through the
plant. A key benefit of the facility is that it has enabled us
to cease methyl bromide fumigation of logs at Napier Port,
a significant environmental win for our region.
Sustainability has been an overriding consideration
throughout the 6 Wharf build with detailed planning
undertaken with mana whenua, fishing groups and other
marine users during a comprehensive resource consent
process. We have now completed the two-year capital
dredging programme and safely disposed of 1.3 million
cubic metres of material while remaining fully compliant
with our resource consent conditions, in particular the
water quality requirements at Pānia Reef.
We are continuing the rollout of our sustainability strategy
and action plans and progressing the social, economic
and environmental actions we prioritised last year. With
a focus on local, achievable initiatives where we can
have the most impact, we have refreshed our community
sponsorship programme to support initiatives that align
with our four sustainability pillars – people, planet,
prosperity and partnerships. Later this year we will also
report on our climate change related disclosures, following
on from the development of baseline emissions and
reduction pathways prioritised last year.
Finally, we welcome the return of cruise ship visits to Napier
in the coming cruise season. It remains too early to say how
the current pipeline of bookings will translate into cruise
ship visits. We are confident however, that Napier Port and
Hawke’s Bay remain an attractive destination for the cruise
industry and demand is robust, especially with 6 Wharf
going live before the season and able to accommodate
the largest cruise vessels that call New Zealand.
BALANCE SHEET AND DIVIDEND
Napier Port remains well funded. We spent $43.7 million
on capital projects in the half year, including $36.9 million
on the 6 Wharf project, and ended the half year with
drawn bank debt of $120 million. In addition, we have
undrawn bank facilities of $60 million.
The Board has resolved to pay a fully imputed interim
dividend of 2.8 cents per share, unchanged from the
interim dividend paid last year.
The record date for dividend entitlements will be 10 June
and the payment date will be 23 June.
OUTLOOK
The trade outlook for our region is positive, with
primary sector commodity prices remaining high and
a stronger second half anticipated for meat, forestry
and horticulture exports.
Even though there are signs the pandemic is abating,
Napier Port still faces uncertainty in the supply chain,
including shipping disruption, labour shortages and
high cost inflation.
Noting continued uncertainties and assuming a
continuation of the current market conditions, Napier Port
reaffirms the earnings guidance provided in April for the
underlying result from operating activities for the year
to 30 September 2022 to range between $38 million
and $42 million.
As highlighted previously, once 6 Wharf completes during
the second half of the financial year, the majority of our
finance costs will be recorded in our income statement.
This, together with the additional depreciation for the new
assets, will be deducted in determining net profit for the year.
The commitment of Napier Port’s people, coupled with the
resilience and productivity of our region and the progress
we continue to make on infrastructure that underpins
growth, positions Napier Port well and gives us long-term
confidence in the future. We look forward to updating
shareholders on our progress at the end of the financial year.

HALF YEAR REPORT 2022 / 5
6 WHARF
OPENING FOR BUSINESS
WINTER 2022
Under budget and ahead of schedule,
the final construction stages and
operational planning of 6 Wharf
is underway. The official opening
ceremony will take place on Friday,
22 July.
Piling, concreting, revetment casting
and dredging are now complete.
All 10 MoorMaster mooring units
have been installed and a new fit-for-
purpose electrical substation
has been built to power the units.
Dry commissioning has been
completed and the first ship trials
will soon be underway.
The landward section of pavement
required during construction has
reverted back to container operations,
where planning is underway on how
to best work the terminal facing 6
Wharf in the future. 6 Wharf has
provided us with the opportunity
to transform terminal operations to
maximise safety and efficiency for our
own port operations, with increased
productivity in exchanges and crane
rates. Cargo owners, transport
operators and shipping lines will all
benefit from greater 24-hour berth
availability across all our wharves,
increased mooring speeds and our
ability to service larger 320-350m
length x 50m beam-width vessels.
6 Wharf future-proofs Hawke’s
Bay’s regional growth and opens
up further growth opportunities and
shipping options for cargo owners
across the central and lower North
Island, helping to alleviate ongoing
shipping disruption and supply chain
congestion across New Zealand.
The new wharf will provide greater
flexibility and availability across all
our wharves and enable us to handle
the increasing numbers of shipping
vessels arriving at Napier Port.
6 / NAPIER PORT – TE HERENGA WAKA O AHURIRI
SUBSTATION
An additional 11,000-volt substation
feeding a new 750 kVA transformer,
has been built to power the
MoorMaster units. The transformer
will also power new and existing light
towers, a data hub and a seismic
monitoring system. The substation
development also includes a data
room for the fibre network to run
the MoorMasters, and back-up
generation in case of power outage.
MOORMASTERS
MoorMasters are state-of-the-art
mooring systems that will enable
Napier Port to berth ships faster and
more safely. They have automated
vacuum pads that moor and release
vessels in seconds, at the push
of a button, with full remote-control
access available out on the wharf
using a tablet device.
HALF YEAR REPORT 2022 / 7
DEBARKER GOES LIVE
Working in partnership with logging customers, we have invested in a log
debarking operation located on Napier Port. The mobile log debarker increases
log turnover capability and improves log yard utilisation, and throughput
is increasing as the operation is embedded into general cargo operations.
Debarking removes the excess bark from logs, which otherwise would have
to undergo phytosanitary treatment, as a requirement of some log export markets.
This has enabled us to cease the use of methyl bromide fumigation of logs on port.
Napier Port’s long-running partnership with local firm BioRich repurposes
bark from the log yard into mulch. Prior to debarking, last year, 5,998 tonnes
of waste bark from the log yard was repurposed into organic mulch, to be used
on orchards, gardens, and planting projects around the region.
As log volumes increase, we are also focusing on log yard layout and traffic
management. As part of preparations for deploying the debarker, a number
of roading and layout changes have been phased in, providing additional
safety and efficiency to log yard operations.
LANDSIDE LOGISTICS
SERVICE GROWING
Launched in 2021, this ‘site to sea’
supply chain solution provides central
and lower North Island customers
with a greater range of freight and
cargo-handling options via Napier Port.
Utilisation of the service is steadily
climbing, with an even mix of export
and import customers.
By coordinating landside road and rail
transport options, and tailoring these
to customer demand and shipping
schedules, the service reduces much
of the inefficiency and time-consuming
activity cargo owners often experience
getting their product to market.
The logistics service:
• optimises container movements –
full loads both ways from the central
and lower North Island reducing
transportation waste
• provides more road and rail links
for importers and exporters
• alleviates congestion out-of-
region customers may be
experiencing elsewhere
• enables cargo berthed at Napier Port
to be quickly dispatched to other
regions in New Zealand, with
a shorter supply chain lead-time
and lower total cost
• coordinates a whole network solution
streamlining the ‘site to sea’ logistics
customers have to organise.
Manawatū Inland Port (MIP) is a key
part of the landside logistics service
offering warehousing, container
storage, import and export transitional
management services and landside
transport to port for shipping lines and
cargo owners. Extended partnerships
with KiwiRail and with local transport
and logistics operators have resulted
in the landside logistics services now
running seven days a week between
MIP and Napier Port.

WELCOME TO
ZIM INTEGRATED
SHIPPING SERVICES
When 6 Wharf goes live mid-2022,
shipping lines will benefit not just from
6 Wharf accommodating the larger
vessels coming to New Zealand, but
through greater availability across all
our wharves to berth their vessels.
The most recent shipping line to add
Napier Port to their port calls is
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services.
ZIM’s transtasman service ships
both dry and refrigerated cargo from
Napier, Auckland and Lyttelton to
Melbourne and Sydney in Australia,
and on to ports throughout Asia.
In January, the first load of containers
using the new ZIM shipping service
arrived, and in February the Contship
Ono berthed as the first vessel to
collect regional exports on the ZIM
service. More than a dozen exporters
used the service on its first call, with
frozen food the main product exported,
alongside canned foodstuffs, apples,
paper product, petfood, wine and
general cargo items.
Customers are pleased to have
another shipping option, especially a
direct transtasman service, providing
more flexibility and reliability to get
their product to global markets.
At the start of the year, Maersk
announced changes to its OC1
service in response to global supply
chain disruption. Napier Port’s
biweekly call was removed from
the service, however the majority
of cargo previously carried on the
OC1 transferred to the Southern
Star and J-Star services, and ZIM’s
transtasman service, and continues
to be exported through Napier Port.
WEATHERING
THE OMICRON
STORM
While Omicron has impacted the supply chain and our
customers’ workforces, on port we have been able
to slow the spread of the virus across our workforce.
Covid-related absence did not exceed 11% at any one
time, which meant no operations were stopped during the
wave of Omicron.
This resilience is partly due to the surveillance saliva PCR
testing implemented last year. This fast, highly accurate,
non-invasive, early detection technology provides
confidence we are keeping people safe and Napier Port
operational for customers and shipping lines.
The port is grateful to the thousands of port users, and
everyone in the community, who complied with the vaccine
mandate adopted for anyone coming on to Napier Port.

RECOGNISING
EXCELLENCE
At the end of last year, a new initiative began at
Napier Port – the Excellence Awards, Ngā Tohu
Kairangatira. The grassroots awards ensure everyone
across the business has equal opportunity to nominate
people for an award. An initial judging panel was
convened with representatives from right across the port,
and this year’s winners become next year’s judging panel.
The awards celebrate all the incredible people at Napier
Port and include recognition for being an Inspirational
Colleague, Unsung Hero, People’s Choice, Leader of the
Year or Rising Star, and for Excellence in Health, Safety
and Wellbeing, Excellence in Customer Service and the
CEO’s Supreme Award. Congratulations to all our worthy
nominees and winners.
COMBINING
COMMUNITY
SUPPORT AND
SUSTAINABILITY
Being a good neighbour and supporting local business
and community is important to Napier Port. By sharing
time and resources with others, the port helps grow
and nurture the community it is a part of.
With the introduction of a sustainability strategy
and action plan last year, a refresh of the community
sponsorship programme was undertaken. The goal was
to structure the programme so it more closely aligned
with the future focus on sustainability.
The sponsorship programme now reflects the four pillars
of the sustainability framework – People, Planet, Prosperity
and Partnerships. As a result, we have welcomed
some new community partnerships including
Cape Sanctuary and A Children’s
Christmas to the programme,
and expanded others, such
as the Napier Port Primary
Sector Awards.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Port operations
Port operations represents a series of services including marine, berthage and port infrastructure services to the
Group’s customers which are accounted for as a single performance obligation. Revenue is recognised over time
using the percentage of completion method.
Revenue is measured based on the service price specified in the relevant tariffs or specific customer contract.
The contract price for the services performed reflects the value transferred to the customer.
Property operations
Investment property lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term.
Operating segments
The Group determines its operating segments based on internal information that is regularly reported to the
Chief Executive, who is the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Group operates in one reportable segment being Port Services. This consists of providing and managing port
services and cargo handling infrastructure through Napier Port. Within the Port Services reportable segment the
following operating segments have been identified: marine services, general cargo services, container services, port
pack services and depot services. These have been aggregated on the basis of similarities in economic characteristics,
customers, nature of services and risks.
The Group operates in one geographic area, that being New Zealand. During the period the Group had a single
customer which comprised 16% of total revenue (2021: 18%).

8 SEA DEFENCES VALUATION
Sea Defence assets were revalued to fair value as at 31 March 2022 by AECOM New Zealand Ltd and the revalued
amounts included in the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022. The valuation has been prepared on an
optimised depreciated replacement cost basis and in accordance with the New Zealand Infrastructure Asset Valuation
and Depreciation Guidelines published by the NAMS group of IPWEA. The valuation increased the carrying amount
of Sea Defences by $29,980,000, resulting in a net book value for Sea Defences of $110,860,000 as at 31 March 2022.
Significant Estimates
The valuation of sea defences is subject to assumptions and judgements which materially affect the resulting valuation.
Such factors include replacement quantities and unit values, the condition and performance of assets, estimated remaining
and total effective lives of 70 to 161 years and 5 to 80 years, respectively, and estimated residual values of 20% of
replacement cost. Other inputs incorporated into the valuation process include an allowance for project on-costs of 5-6%.
An increase in the remaining useful life, the residual value assumption, or in replacement quantities and unit values for sea
defence assets will result in an increase in the valuation and vice versa.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF NAPIER PORT HOLDINGS LIMITED’S INTERIM FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The Auditor-General is the auditor of Napier Port Holding’s Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). The
Auditor-General has appointed me, Stuart Mutch, using the staff and resources of Ernst & Young, to carry out the
review of the interim financial statements of the Group on his behalf.
Conclusion
We have reviewed the interim financial statements of the Group on pages 12 to 21, which comprise the
consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022, and the consolidated income statement,
statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of cash flows
for the six
months ended on that date, and the notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial
statements of the Group do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31
March 2022, and its financial performance and cash flows for the six months ended on that date, in accordance
with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and
International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed
by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (‘NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)’). Our responsibilities are further described in
the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Interim Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the independence requirements of the Auditor-General’s
Auditing Standards, which incorporate the independence requirements of Professional and Ethical Standard 1
International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance
Standards Board.
Other than in our capacity as auditor, we have no relationship with, or interests, in the Group.
Directors’ responsibilities for the interim financial statements
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Group, for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim
financial statements in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34: Interim
Financial Reporting and International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
The Directors are also responsible for the publication of the interim financial statements, whether in printed or
electronic form.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. NZ SRE
2410 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that
the interim financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with
New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and International
Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
HALF YEAR REPORT 2022 / 23
A member firm of Ernst & Young Global Limited
A review of the interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance
engagement. We perform procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible
for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. The procedures
performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that
we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not
express an audit opinion on these interim financial statements.

•Free Cash Flow
1
is a non-NZ GAAP measure adopted by Napier Port. It excludes capital expenditure on
development projects (including 6 Wharf) and the interest costs which will be capitalised during
construction
•The payment of dividends is not guaranteed and will be at the discretion of the Board and depend on a
number of factors. These factors include the general business environment, operating results (including
our ability to grow Free Cash Flow
1
)and financial condition of Napier Port, future funding requirements,
any contractual, legal or regulatory restrictions on the payment of dividends by Napier Port and any other
factors the Board may consider relevant. In declaring dividends, Napier Port must comply with the
solvency test under the Companies Act and the covenants in its banking facilities
•Dividend payments are expected to be split into an interim dividend paid in June, targeting 40%
of the total expected dividend for the financial year, and a final dividend paid in December. Napier Port
intends to impute dividends to the maximum extent possible
1-Non-NZ GAAP measure, being NPAT, adjusted for the post-tax impact of fair value revaluations of derivatives and investment properties, plus depreciation, amortisation and impairment, less the average replacement
capital expenditure of maintaining Napier Port's asset base. Average replacement capital expenditure is based on an assessment of the long term average cost of maintaining assets for Napier Port in real terms.

1.1 Description of adjustments
In determining the use of adjustments, the Directors have considered only those items that they
believe are required to ensure consistency and comparability of the financial information over the
periods presented.
The adjustment that Napier Port considers appropriate is the removal of unrealised fair value
movements on investment properties as these are non-core activity.
